@shorts thanks for the encouraging words. My prep seems pretty intense with six Dulcolax two bottles of MiraLAX and three bottles of Gatorade, I’m going to give it my best shot. One normal serving of MiraLAX and two Dulcolax gives me plenty diarrhea so it will be interesting.

Make sure you stay hydrated with extra water and clear juices. Seems counterintuitive, but important. You’ll be losing the liquid they’ve prescribed for you. I’ve only used the pills with the gallon of GoLytely prep, so don’t know about the difference. If you are wondering about anything, call your gastroenterologist’s office and ask to speak with their nurse. Ask the nurse anything you want to know, and tell them your concerns. The prep is pretty icky, but they need you squeaky clean.
